Let Us Be Thankful

Thanksgiving Casserole Recipe
Jump to Recipe - Print Recipe

I’ve been in Thanksgiving mode for a few weeks now. I’m making ALL THE SIDES, and dreaming of turkey. That I will buy fully prepared because I obviously do not know what I’m doing when it comes to turkey.

While I love a good old fashioned holiday feast, I know that isn’t the case for everyone. Maybe family is too hard. Or distance/work/health/etc. can keep us away from the festivities. But just because your Thanksgiving may look different this year, doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy all the flavors of the day.

Enter my Thanksgiving Casserole. All the flavors of the holiday, baked with an herby cornbread on top. Pair it with some canned cranberry sauce and some roasted veggies and you have a mini-feast! This would also be a great meal to give to someone who may not be able to cook for themselves this year.

Part of our focus for our #nospendnovember was to see what was right in front of us. For most of the month that meant looking at the ingredients in our pantry, but now I’d like to shift our focus. Let focus on the PEOPLE in front of us. Who has been put into our lives, for better or for worse? Family, neighbors, coworkers. While the focus on Thanksgiving tends to be on the food, the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade, and football, let us not forget one another. We are all coming to the table from a different space, bringing different highs and lows along with us.

Let us have grace. Let us have kindness.
